Outside of a few typos here and there (mostly, a few misspellings and missing commas), this is absolutely lovely. I like how you didn't go the usual route of Jame ALWAYS wanting to be in the navy. Your take on it certainly makes him a varied character.

I'd love to see you continue this...and considering Norrington's one of my favorite characters of the series, it'd be nice to see him survive it! Anyway, looking forward to more from you.
